worshipping the sunMother natures black revenge on those who waste her lifeWar babies in the garden of Eden shall turn our ashes to iceSunrise is gone, freezing up the firesSunrise is gone, numbing all desiresSunrise is gone, Sunrise is goneAround the world the people stop with terror-sticken eyesA shadow cast upon them all to crush them like a flyIn the icy rain and whiplashed seas there's nowhere left to runThe hammer blows of winter fall like a hurricaneSunrise is gone, freezing up the firesSunrise is gone, numbing all desiresAround the world the nations waitfor some wise words from their leading lightYou know it's not only madmen who listen to fools"Is this the end" the millions criedclutching their riches as they diedThose who survive must weather the stormGone are the days when man looked downThey've taken away his sacred crownTo be so free, it took so longIt's not the journeys end, it's just begunOSKAR WIGREN 1997-02-19
